Put your homework on GitHub!

If you were not able to get set up on GitHub last week, go here and get set up first. Then, do the following (if you get stuck on a step, don’t worry, I will help! You can always get started on the homework and we can figure out the GitHub piece later):

• Create a repository on GitHub, giving it a nice name so you know it is for the 4th weekly exercise assignment (follow the instructions in the document/video).
  
• Copy the repo name so you can clone it to your computer. In R Studio, go to file –> New project –> Version control –> Git and follow the instructions from the document/video.
  
• Download the code from this document and save it in the repository folder/project on your computer.
  
• In R Studio, you should then see the .Rmd file in the upper right corner in the Git tab (along with the .Rproj file and probably .gitignore).
  
• Check all the boxes of the files in the Git tab under Stage and choose commit.
  
• In the commit window, write a commit message, something like “Initial upload” would be appropriate, and commit the files.
  
• Either click the green up arrow in the commit window or close the commit window and click the green up arrow in the Git tab to push your changes to GitHub.
  
• Refresh your GitHub page (online) and make sure the new documents have been pushed out.
  
• Back in R Studio, knit the .Rmd file. When you do that, you should have two (as long as you didn’t make any changes to the .Rmd file, in which case you might have three) files show up in the Git tab - an .html file and an .md file. The .md file is something we haven’t seen before and is here because I included keep_md: TRUE in the YAML heading. The .md file is a markdown (NOT R Markdown) file that is an interim step to creating the html file. They are displayed fairly nicely in GitHub, so we want to keep it and look at it there. Click the boxes next to these two files, commit changes (remember to include a commit message), and push them (green up arrow).
  
• As you work through your homework, save and commit often, push changes occasionally (maybe after you feel finished with an exercise?), and go check to see what the .md file looks like on GitHub.
  
• If you have issues, let me know! This is new to many of you and may not be intuitive at first. But, I promise, you’ll get the hang of it!

Instructions

• Put your name at the top of the document.

• For ALL graphs, you should include appropriate labels.

• Feel free to change the default theme, which I currently have set to theme_minimal().

• Use good coding practice. Read the short sections on good code with pipes and ggplot2. This is part of your grade!

• When you are finished with ALL the exercises, uncomment the options at the top so your document looks nicer. Don’t do it before then, or else you might miss some important warnings and messages.

Warm-up exercises from tutorial

These exercises will reiterate what you learned in the “Mapping data with R” tutorial. If you haven’t gone through the tutorial yet, you should do that first.

Starbucks locations (ggmap)

1. Add the Starbucks locations to a world map. Add an aesthetic to the world map that sets the color of the points according to the ownership type. What, if anything, can you deduce from this visualization?

I notice that certain ownership types are clustered in different geographies. For example, there are a lot of, if not all, joint ventures of the coast of Asia.

#Code from "Mapping data in R" tutorial

world <- get_stamenmap(
    bbox = c(left = -180, bottom = -57, right = 179, top = 82.1), 
    maptype = "terrain",
    zoom = 2)

## Warning: Removed 1 rows containing missing values (geom_point).

2. Construct a new map of Starbucks locations in the Twin Cities metro area (approximately the 5 county metro area).

tc <- get_stamenmap(
    bbox = c(left = -95, bottom = 44.6543, right = -92.7811, top = 45.4514), 
    maptype = "terrain",
    zoom = 11)

## 98 tiles needed, this may take a while (try a smaller zoom).

3. In the Twin Cities plot, play with the zoom number. What does it do? (just describe what it does - don’t actually include more than one map).

If we have a low zoom number like the world map, it is really blurry and you can’t make out the map. Increasing zoom also adds more highways and streets. It also decreases the size of the city labels and adds more of them.

4. Try a couple different map types (see get_stamenmap() in help and look at maptype). Include a map with one of the other map types.

world_toner <- get_stamenmap(
    bbox = c(left = -180, bottom = -57, right = 179, top = 82.1), 
    maptype = "toner",
    zoom = 2)

ggmap(world_toner) +
  labs(title ="World Map") +
  theme_map()

5. Add a point to the map that indicates Macalester College and label it appropriately. There are many ways you can do think, but I think it’s easiest with the annotate() function (see ggplot2 cheatsheet).

ggmap(world_toner) + 
  geom_point() +
  annotate(geom = "point", x =  - 93.1691, y =44.937, color = "red") +
  annotate(geom = "text", x =  - 93.1691, y =49, label = "Macalester", color = "red")+
  labs(title = "World Map with Macalester College") +
  theme_map()

Choropleth maps with Starbucks data (geom_map())

The example I showed in the tutorial did not account for population of each state in the map. In the code below, a new variable is created, starbucks_per_10000, that gives the number of Starbucks per 10,000 people. It is in the starbucks_with_2018_pop_est dataset.

census_pop_est_2018 <- read_csv("https://www.dropbox.com/s/6txwv3b4ng7pepe/us_census_2018_state_pop_est.csv?dl=1") %>% 
  separate(state, into = c("dot","state"), extra = "merge") %>% 
  select(-dot) %>% 
  mutate(state = str_to_lower(state))

## 
## ── Column specification ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
## cols(
##   state = col_character(),
##   est_pop_2018 = col_double()
## )

starbucks_with_2018_pop_est <-
  starbucks_us_by_state %>% 
  left_join(census_pop_est_2018,
            by = c("state_name" = "state")) %>% 
  mutate(starbucks_per_10000 = (n/est_pop_2018)*10000)

6. dplyr review: Look through the code above and describe what each line of code does.

The first line follows the link and reads the CSV file into a data frame. The second line separates the state variable into two variables so we are able to get rid of the “.” in the state variable in the next line. The mutate function changes the states to be in all lowercase.

The Starbucks data first names the new data set and then merges it with the census data and matches the “state_name” and “state” variables. The last line creates a new variables for the number of Starbucks per 10000 people in that state.

7. Create a choropleth map that shows the number of Starbucks per 10,000 people on a map of the US. Use a new fill color, add points for all Starbucks in the US (except Hawaii and Alaska), add an informative title for the plot, and include a caption that says who created the plot (you!). Make a conclusion about what you observe.

There are more Starbucks per capita the further northeast you travel which makes sense since that is where they started the company.

states_map <- map_data("state")

# map that colors state by number of Starbucks
starbucks_with_2018_pop_est %>% 
  ggplot() +
  geom_map(map = states_map,
           aes(map_id = state_name,
               fill = starbucks_per_10000)) +
  expand_limits(x = states_map$long, y = states_map$lat) + 
  theme_map() +
  scale_fill_viridis_c(option = "B") +
  labs(title = "Starbucks per 10,000 People",
       caption = "Kennedy Kechely")

A few of your favorite things (leaflet)

8. In this exercise, you are going to create a single map of some of your favorite places! The end result will be one map that satisfies the criteria below.

• Create a data set using the tibble() function that has 10-15 rows of your favorite places. The columns will be the name of the location, the latitude, the longitude, and a column that indicates if it is in your top 3 favorite locations or not. For an example of how to use tibble(), look at the favorite_stp_by_lisa I created in the data R code chunk at the beginning.

favorite_stp_by_kennedy <- tibble(
  place = c("Rochester Home", "Macalester Softball Field", "Target", 
            "School Home", "Lake Bde Maka Ska", "Moka Coffee",
            "Dunkin' Donuts", "Butler University", "Lincoln, NE", 
            "Breckenridge, CO"),
  long = c(-92.492270, -93.169980, -93.155610, 
           -93.169320, -93.306450, -92.463114, 
           -93.16700744628906, -86.16897583007812, -96.7077751, 
           -106.04692840576172),
  lat = c(44.013100, 44.934770, 44.953250,
          44.944720, 44.948140, 44.0334518, 
          44.9447135925293, 39.83837127685547, 40.8088861,
          39.473114013671875),
  top3 = c("Not top 3","Top 3","Not top 3",
           "Not top 3","Not top 3","Top 3",
           "Not top 3","Not top 3","Not top 3",
           "Top 3")
  )

• Create a leaflet map that uses circles to indicate your favorite places. Label them with the name of the place. Choose the base map you like best. Color your 3 favorite places differently than the ones that are not in your top 3 (HINT: colorFactor()). Add a legend that explains what the colors mean.

pal <- colorFactor("viridis", 
                   domain = favorite_stp_by_kennedy$top3)

leaflet(data = favorite_stp_by_kennedy) %>% 
  addProviderTiles(providers$Stamen.TonerBackground) %>%

• Connect all your locations together with a line in a meaningful way (you may need to order them differently in the original data).

leaflet(data = favorite_stp_by_kennedy) %>% 
  addProviderTiles(providers$Stamen.TonerBackground) %>% 
  addCircles(lng = ~long, 
             lat = ~lat, 
             label = ~place, 
             weight = 10, 
             opacity = 1,
             color = ~pal(top3)) %>% 
  addLegend(pal = pal,
            values= ~top3,
            position = "bottomright",
            title = NULL,
            labels = ~c("Not top 3", "Top 3")) %>% 
  addPolylines(lng = ~long,
               lat = ~lat,
               color = col2hex("darkred"))

• If there are other variables you want to add that could enhance your plot, do that now.

Revisiting old datasets

This section will revisit some datasets we have used previously and bring in a mapping component.

Bicycle-Use Patterns

The data come from Washington, DC and cover the last quarter of 2014.

Two data tables are available:

• Trips contains records of individual rentals
• Stations gives the locations of the bike rental stations

Here is the code to read in the data. We do this a little differently than usualy, which is why it is included here rather than at the top of this file. To avoid repeatedly re-reading the files, start the data import chunk with {r cache = TRUE} rather than the usual {r}. This code reads in the large dataset right away.

data_site <- 
  "https://www.macalester.edu/~dshuman1/data/112/2014-Q4-Trips-History-Data.rds" 
Trips <- readRDS(gzcon(url(data_site)))
Stations<-read_csv("http://www.macalester.edu/~dshuman1/data/112/DC-Stations.csv")

## 
## ── Column specification ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
## cols(
##   name = col_character(),
##   lat = col_double(),
##   long = col_double(),
##   nbBikes = col_double(),
##   nbEmptyDocks = col_double()
## )

9. Use the latitude and longitude variables in Stations to make a visualization of the total number of departures from each station in the Trips data. Use either color or size to show the variation in number of departures. This time, plot the points on top of a map. Use any of the mapping tools you’d like.

TripStationData <- Trips %>% 
  group_by(sstation) %>% 
  summarize(departures = n(),
            name = sstation) %>% 
  left_join(Stations,
            by = c("name")) %>% 
  distinct(sstation, .keep_all = TRUE) 

## `summarise()` has grouped output by 'sstation'. You can override using the `.groups` argument.

WashDC <- get_stamenmap(
    bbox = c(left = -77.3891, bottom = 38.7128, right = -76.6406, top = 39.0746), 
    maptype = "toner-background",
    zoom = 10)

10. Only 14.4% of the trips in our data are carried out by casual users. Create a plot that shows which area(s) have stations with a much higher percentage of departures by casual users. What patterns do you notice? Also plot this on top of a map. I think it will be more clear what the patterns are.

The majority of the casual riders are right in the center near some of the tourist attractions in DC.

CasData <- Trips %>% 
  mutate(casual = ifelse(client == "Casual",1, 0)) %>% 
  group_by(sstation) %>% 
  summarize(departures = n(),
            name = sstation,
            total_cas = sum(casual),
            percent_cas = total_cas/departures * 100) %>% 
  left_join(Stations,
            by = c("name")) %>% 
  distinct(sstation, .keep_all = TRUE)

## `summarise()` has grouped output by 'sstation'. You can override using the `.groups` argument.

ggmap(WashDC) +
  geom_point(data=CasData,
             aes(x = long, y = lat, color = percent_cas)) +
  labs(title = "Washington DC Train Departures",
       x = "",
       y = "")

## Warning: Removed 33 rows containing missing values (geom_point).

COVID-19 data

The following exercises will use the COVID-19 data from the NYT.

11. Create a map that colors the states by the most recent cumulative number of COVID-19 cases (remember, these data report cumulative numbers so you don’t need to compute that). Describe what you see. What is the problem with this map?

We don’t have any population scale.

covid19 %>% 
  group_by(state) %>% 
  summarize(recentcount = max(cases)) %>% 
  mutate(state = str_to_lower(state)) %>% 
  ggplot() +
  geom_map(map = states_map,
           aes(map_id = state,
               fill = recentcount)) +
  expand_limits(x = states_map$long, y = states_map$lat) + 
  theme_map() +
  labs(title = "Cumulative Number of COVID 19 Cases")

12. Now add the population of each state to the dataset and color the states by most recent cumulative cases/10,000 people. See the code for doing this with the Starbucks data. You will need to make some modifications.

covid_with_2018_pop_est <-
  covid19 %>% 
  group_by(state) %>% 
  summarize(recentcount = max(cases)) %>% 
  mutate(state = str_to_lower(state)) %>% 
  left_join(census_pop_est_2018,
            by = c("state" = "state")) %>% 
  mutate(cases_per_10000 = (recentcount/est_pop_2018)*10000) 

ggplot(data = covid_with_2018_pop_est) +
  geom_map(map = states_map,
           aes(map_id = state,
               fill = cases_per_10000)) +
  expand_limits(x = states_map$long, y = states_map$lat) + 
  theme_map() +
  labs(title = "Cumulative Number of COVID 19 Cases per 10,000 People")

13. CHALLENGE Choose 4 dates spread over the time period of the data and create the same map as in exercise 12 for each of the dates. Display the four graphs together using faceting. What do you notice?

I tried to facet_wrap by date but failed. I think the rest of the code is right though.

# covid19 %>% 
#   filter(date == "2020-03-01" |
#            date == "2020-05-01"|
#            date == "2020-08-01"|
#            date == "2020-11-01") %>% 
#   mutate(state = str_to_lower(state)) %>% 
#   left_join(census_pop_est_2018,
#             by = c("state" = "state")) %>% 
#   mutate(cases_per_10000 = (cases/est_pop_2018)*10000) %>% 
#   
#   ggplot() +
#   facet_wrap(date) +
#   geom_map(map = states_map,
#            aes(map_id = state,
#                fill = cases_per_10000)) +
#   expand_limits(x = states_map$long, y = states_map$lat) + 
#   theme_map() +
#   labs(title = "Cumulative Number of COVID 19 Cases per 10,000 People")

Minneapolis police stops

These exercises use the datasets MplsStops and MplsDemo from the carData library. Search for them in Help to find out more information.

14. Use the MplsStops dataset to find out how many stops there were for each neighborhood and the proportion of stops that were for a suspicious vehicle or person. Sort the results from most to least number of stops. Save this as a dataset called mpls_suspicious and display the table.

mpls_suspicious <- MplsStops %>% 
  group_by(neighborhood) %>% 
  summarize(stops_per_neighborhood = n(),
            sus_stops_prop = sum(problem=="suspicious")/stops_per_neighborhood) %>% 
  arrange(desc(stops_per_neighborhood))

mpls_suspicious

15. Use a leaflet map and the MplsStops dataset to display each of the stops on a map as a small point. Color the points differently depending on whether they were for suspicious vehicle/person or a traffic stop (the problem variable). HINTS: use addCircleMarkers, set stroke = FAlSE, use colorFactor() to create a palette.

pal_traffic <- colorFactor("viridis", 
                   domain = MplsStops$problem)

leaflet(data = MplsStops) %>% 
  addProviderTiles(providers$Stamen.TonerBackground) %>% 
  addCircleMarkers(lng = ~long,
                   lat = ~lat, 
                   weight = 5, 
                   opacity = 0.5,
                   color = ~pal_traffic(problem),
                   stroke= FALSE) %>% 
  addLegend(pal = pal_traffic,
            values= ~problem,
            position = "bottomright",
            title = NULL)

16. Save the folder from moodle called Minneapolis_Neighborhoods into your project/repository folder for this assignment. Make sure the folder is called Minneapolis_Neighborhoods. Use the code below to read in the data and make sure to delete the eval=FALSE. Although it looks like it only links to the .sph file, you need the entire folder of files to create the mpls_nbhd data set. These data contain information about the geometries of the Minneapolis neighborhoods. Using the mpls_nbhd dataset as the base file, join the mpls_suspicious and MplsDemo datasets to it by neighborhood (careful, they are named different things in the different files). Call this new dataset mpls_all.

mpls_nbhd <- st_read("Minneapolis_Neighborhoods/Minneapolis_Neighborhoods.shp", quiet = TRUE)

mpls_all <- mpls_nbhd %>% 
  left_join(mpls_suspicious,
            by = c("BDNAME" = "neighborhood")) %>% 
  left_join(MplsDemo,
            by = c("BDNAME" = "neighborhood"))

17. Use leaflet to create a map from the mpls_all data that colors the neighborhoods by prop_suspicious. Display the neighborhood name as you scroll over it. Describe what you observe in the map.

There are a relatively high proportion of traffic stops that are suspicious in the southeast part and a relatively low proportion in the northeast. The green areas are more in the middle of the distribution.

pal17 <- colorNumeric("viridis", 
                   domain = mpls_all$sus_stops_prop)

leaflet(mpls_all) %>% 
  addTiles() %>% 
  addPolygons(
    fillColor = ~pal17(sus_stops_prop), 
    fillOpacity = 0.7,
    label = ~BDNAME) %>% 
  addLegend(pal = pal17,
            values = ~sus_stops_prop)

18. Use leaflet to create a map of your own choosing. Come up with a question you want to try to answer and use the map to help answer that question. Describe what your map shows.

This map shows the household income in each neighborhood. The wealthier neighborhoods are in the southwest of Minneapolis and the poorer neighborhoods are in the center of the city.

pal18 <- colorNumeric("magma", 
                   domain = mpls_all$hhIncome)

leaflet(mpls_all) %>% 
  addTiles() %>% 
  addPolygons(
    fillColor = ~pal18(hhIncome), 
    fillOpacity = 0.7,
    label = ~BDNAME) %>% 
  addLegend(pal = pal18,
            values = ~hhIncome)
